My Birthdate
I was born in Underwood Hospital in Woodbury, NJ at 7:41pm. My full name is Allyson Rebecca Horowitz. I weighed 6lbs & 15oz. -
Lost my first tooth
I remember that I cried histerically when my tooth was coming out. I didn't like the feeling of it wiggling and it hurt a lot when it came out. However, I put it underneath of my pillow and I was happy with the gift that the tooth fairy left me. -
Started to play soccer
I began playing soccer for the developmental team at Cohansey. My coach was Mr. Willis and I loved playing from the time that I started. I still remember how happy I was on the day that I scored my first goal. Little did i know that it was something that would stick with me for many years to come and that it would become such a big part of my life. -
13th Birthday & Soccer Tournament
My family and I went to Disney World during the summer to celebrate my 13th birthday. During a parade, a quartet sang happy birthday to me. In the winter of that year, my soccer team won a trip to Flordia to play in a 3v3 tournament so we ended up going to Disney World twice in one year. My soccer team had a lot of fun, but the competition was much harder than we expected. -
8th Grade Graduation
I graduated from Shiloh Elementary School. There was a total of 11 kids in my graduating class which was a big class for Shiloh. I was the last class to graduate out of there before it closed. -
Starting Varsity for CRHS
During my first summer practices of high school soccer I was able to make the starting varsity team. It took a lot of hard work, but all of the years I had put into soccer had paid off. I was able to keep my starting varisty position for all 4 years. We had a very solid team throughout those years and I had a lot of fun playing with all my close friends. -
Got my license
When my 17th birthday was approaching, my dad was looking for a car for me to drive. When i found my Jeep Liberty I was so excited. I was so nervous while I was taking my driver's test and I was afraid that I wouldn't pass. However, I did pass and was able to get my license that day. It felt so good to be able to go anywhere I needed to whenever I needed to. It also made traveling to soccer practices and such things much easter. -
First Job
I got my first real job as a cashier at Shop Rite in Upper Deerfield. I was nervous to start because I had never really worked with the public like that before. I have always helped my dad on our nursery, but I never had an actual job. My brother has worked there for 6 years and helped me a lot with getting my job there. It was my first time going through an interview and I was really nervous. So far, it has been a great job for me and I hope to keep it even after I graduate from high school. -
Senior Trip
My senior trip to Disney World will be something that I will never forget. It was so much fun to be able to spend those days with my friends and just have a good time. There were many jokes that will always stick around. It was a lot of fun, however it reminded me that the end of my high school years are soon to come. -
Now to 5 years in the future: High School Graduation
I will graduate from Cumberland Regional High School. During my time there I participated in Varsity Soccer and Varsity Golf, Student Council, Key Club, National Honor Society, and Senior Mentoring. I made a lot of good friends here and have had many good memories. There were some times when there were rough patches, but I was able to get through them. I am sad to graduate, but also ready to move on and start my next adventure. -
Now to 5 years in the future: Continuing my soccer career
I plan to attend Cumberland County College for 2 years. While i am there, I plan to play soccer for their team so that I can continue my love for the game, but also focus on my school work. I do not want to play on a team that consumes all my time because at that point, my school work will definitely be more important than playing soccer. I will get to play with some girls that I have been playing with ever since I started to play. -
Now to 5 years in the future: graduating from CCC
I plan to graduate from Cumberland County College with an Associates in Education. I would hope to keep my job at Shop Rite during this time so that I can save up money while I am in school. -
Now to 5 years in the future: graduating from Rowan University
I plan to continue my studies at Rowan University and graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Education. I would hope to teach at the kindergarten level in the State of NJ because I would not want to leave the place that I grew up. -
Now to 5 years in the future: Finding the perfect mate
In the future I plan to get married and raise a family. During my time at school I would also be looking for the person that I would spend the rest of my life with. Once i graduated from school and everything settled down a little, I would really focus on finding that perfect mate if I did not already have one. Later on, I would plan to get married and then start a family of my own.
